How to explain Earth-like gravity in small asteroids?

+0
−0

I'm working on a sci-fi game about conquering little asteroids (about 1 km diameter). You can go into one of them and make it Earth-like so other humans, animals or plants can live there.

To do this I need asteroids to have Earth-like gravity, but I'm having a hard time trying to come up with a solution that wouldn't make asteroids collapse. I thought about digging a hole through the center of the rock and placing there some kind of "crazy matter", but I think this is too far-fetched even for a sci-fi game.

Any ideas?

Edit: I didn't state it explicitly, but gravity must be provided by some hi-tech device the player must own.
